Professional supervision to support your growth, practice, and ethical standards.

Counselling Supervision in Newcastle upon Tyne

Counselling Supervision: is suitable for a variety of professionals; trainee and qualified counsellors & psychologists, health professionals and supervisors. As a supervisor I provide a safe, supportive, confidential and reflective environment where you can explore the dynamics of your therapeutic work with clients.

An initial meeting is arranged to discuss your requirements and will account for the models and theories you are interested and work within. Supervision can also explore placement and career opportunities. Supervision aims to facilitate your development and practice by increasing awareness, knowledge and expertise. I draw primarily from the process model of Hawkin and Schohet (1989) however the process of supervision is essentially integrative relational. The model has seven modes that facilitates, develops and informs the process of supervision:

1. Reflection on the content of therapy sessions between you and client.
2. Exploration of the strategies and interventions used by you.
3. Exploration of the therapy dynamics and therapeutic relationships.
4. Focus on your counter-transference.
5. Focus on our supervisory process as a parallel to the therapy process.
6. Focus on my supervisor’s counter-transference.
7. Focus on the wider context such as the organisation you are working in.
